Correll, you are going to find out, over the next 4 years, that China is no longer a 3rd world agricultural country growing rice to feed their starving peasants. Within 25 years, they will be equal to us in the world market. Trump seems determined to make that happen with 10 years, instead of 25.
I'm well aware of the vast amounts of industry that has been grown in China, at our expense, primarily.
That's the point.
Oh, I forgot. Trumpettes think that trade wars are GOOD for our economy, just like it was in 1928, and 1929.
How Trump's wall could beckon a global trade war
In 1928 we were a vast exporter. NOw we are a vast importer.
Everyone that exports TO us, has a vested interest in NOT starting a trade war.
If they DO start a Trade War, it will fuck them up, vastly more than it does US.
It is pretty obvious that you don't have a whole lot of personal skin in this game Correll.
I see by your attempt to make it personal that you have no real challenge to my point.
Thus, your post is invalid, and my points stands.

When Trump adopts an economic policy that is so bad that i sold my entire portfolio, it becomes personal. However, if one has no significant stock of their own, why should they care?
I suspect that you are of the later description.
